Advantages of Mud Therapy in Republican Hospital of Medical Rehabilitation (the Udmurt Republic): Frequently, the popular widely used treatments, based on modern achievements of pharmaceutical science and new medical technologies, are highly efficient only for a short time after the course completion, with frequent recrudescence of the process a few months later and therefore could not solve the problem of a significant reduction in morbidity. It is known, that medicines cause a side effect very often, and it aggravates the course of the underlying disease or leads to the development of new diseases including allergic one which is difficult to correct. Therefore, it is obvious and not accidental that attention to the natural curative factors, which are highly effective and safe, is increasing. Thus, therapeutic muds give an evident multilevel healing effect on the human body due to its multicomponent composition. The peculiarity of therapeutic mud effect is concluded in gradual development of positive deep structural changes which provide a systematic trace creation and long-term adaptation at the quite higher level. And in its turn it leads to an increase in resistance to unfavourable factors of the outside and internal environment, e.g.climatic, ecological, stress and infectious factors.
